Italeri 1/48 F-4E Phantom II - Cold War jet in scale

The McDonnell Douglas F-4E Phantom II is a defining jet of its era. Designed for high speed, all-weather operations, it was employed by several armed services and left a clear mark on aerial tactics and mission planning.

Performance highlights and fittings

The F-4E variant includes the M61 Vulcan cannon and the ability to carry AIM-9 Sidewinder and AIM-7 Sparrow missiles. With two powerful J-79 engines, the Phantom achieved very high speeds for its time. Its size traded off some dogfighting agility but gave advantage in speed and payload.

Model details and collector appeal

This Italeri 1/48 kit models the Phantom II with attention to shape and surface detail. It comes with a super decal sheet covering four historically based versions, making it suitable for collectors and serious modellers interested in Cold War aircraft.
